The only ionic compound which can react with Zn(s) to produce gas bubbles is HBr.

What is an electrolyte?

An electrolyte is a solution that is able to conduct electricity. This solution must contain ions as ions are the charge carriers in solution.

In this case, we have to look at the options and discover the compounds that are made of ions and the only ionic compound which can react with Zn(s) to produce gas bubbles is HBr.
